Coupland Castle
Coupland Castle
A tower house, probably built at the end of the 16th century. It has been added to over the years and was restored in the 19th century. The tower has three storeys with an attic on top and a small projecting tower carried up the south wall. The entrance door has a date of 1594 inscribed on one side. It was once the home of Matthew Culley, the agricultural reformer who with his brother George set about improving methods of soil cultivation in the nineteenth century. Today, the Earl of Durham occasionally resides at Copeland Castle.
